If, beginning six months following the closing of the private placement, the closing price of the Company's shares equals or exceeds $0.75 per share for a period of ten consecutive trading days, the Company will have the right to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by giving the Warrant-holders at least 30 days' written notice.
